Just replaced my motherboard and I get this screen what do I do

pearl sky Dec 26, 2023, 4:32 AM

#

you got the board used

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:32 AM

#

What

#

There’s no way

pearl sky Dec 26, 2023, 4:33 AM

#

that just saying you swaped cpu and if you use a thing called TPM you need to use your old cpu to get that data

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:33 AM

#

Did I really get a used motherboard 😔

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:33 AM

#

that is completely normal lol. just a new cpu. press y unless you have bitlocker

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:33 AM

#

No I didn’t get a new cpu

#

I got a new motherboard

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:33 AM

#

yeah

pearl sky Dec 26, 2023, 4:33 AM

#

well mobo was power up before with other cpu

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:34 AM

#

that new motherboard had your "new" (to it) cpu

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:34 AM

#

Both of you guys are saying 2 different things

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:34 AM

#

do you have bitlocker on your os

#

aka encryption

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:35 AM

#

orchid crest Both of you guys are saying 2 different things

you got a new motherboard, and that motherboard has never had your cpu in it. therefore its a new cpu installed

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:35 AM

#

twilit isle aka encryption

No

#

I should just press y

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:35 AM

#

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:36 AM

#

twilit isle you got a new motherboard, and that motherboard has never had your cpu in it. th...

Ahhh okay

#

That other dude said I got it used

#

So that’s what confused me

#

Cause my parents got me this mobo for Christmas so I was confused

pearl sky Dec 26, 2023, 4:36 AM

#

i have not gottern that message with new board

#

well you can buy open box boards on lots of sellers

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:37 AM

#

#

My parents got it from Amazon themselves

#

Not a third party seller

#

Would of been sketch if it was but it wasn’t

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:38 AM

#

anywho, that message is normal when a motherboard receives a new cpu. just press "y" and it'll be fine

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:39 AM

#

pearl sky Dec 26, 2023, 4:46 AM

#

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:46 AM

#

But now am5 is out it’s slowly getting time to switch

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:47 AM

#

all AMD has to do is not fuck up like intel. yk the "lga 115X" cooler compatibility? thats bc it was lga 1150, 1150, 1155, and 1156 (maybe more idk, but its all trash)

#

they didnt require the extra few pins. it was just to force new motherboards

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:48 AM

#

I don’t know much about intel ngl

#

#

I don’t gotta update bios right

#

I’m chilling

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:48 AM

#

ye

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:49 AM

#

#

Changed my xmp and that’s about it

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:49 AM

#

yeah thats fine

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:49 AM

#

Anything else I should be changing?

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:49 AM

#

dont do any random cpu oc

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:50 AM

#

orchid crest Anything else I should be changing?

if thats all you did in your other bios, then no, dont change anything else

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:50 AM

#

twilit isle dont do any random cpu oc

I don’t need to ngl

#

But imma on my gpu soon

#

Oc*

#

My 2070 super bottlenecks my 5900x slightly imma up it

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:51 AM

#

what res are you playing at

#

also you want your gpu to be the limiter

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:52 AM

#

twilit isle what res are you playing at

1440

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:53 AM

#

twilit isle also you want your gpu to be the limiter

Wdym

#

Stronger than my cpu?

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:53 AM

#

orchid crest Wdym

thats how you get the most consistant feeling gaming. when the cpu is the limiter, any background task will tank fps

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:54 AM

#

But what is limiter mean?

#

Does it mean

#

Like if my gpu is weaker then my cpu

#

Then my gpu is the limiter

#

It limits

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:54 AM

#

the gpu should be limiting your system in gaming

#

bottlenecking

#

however you wanna call it

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:54 AM

#

Ohhh

#

Ok ok

#

And now

#

I have run into an issue

#

Fan speeds

#

I gotta set up a curve

#

I forgot my curve for my old one

#

But my old motherboard I only had an aio so

#

Now I got intake fans

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:55 AM

#

btw, dont send too many messages at the same time

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:55 AM

#

How come?

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:56 AM

#

warship will mute you for "spamming"

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:56 AM

#

Oh damn bet thank you

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:56 AM

#

orchid crest I forgot my curve for my old one

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:57 AM

#

Thanks man

#

One more thing

#

My internet

#

#

But my board comes with built in WiFi

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:57 AM

#

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:57 AM

#

And I setup the little thing it gave me

#

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:58 AM

#

yeah....you probably need to get the drivers for it

#

classic

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:58 AM

#

So how do I get the drivers

#

If I don’t have internet 💀

#

Hotspot?

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:58 AM

#

gigabyte's website. do you have another computer/laptop you can use?

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 4:58 AM

#

Nah I don’t

#

I could just use a hotspot

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 4:59 AM

#

that wouldnt help drivers

#

you still have to connect using the wifi

#

which needs said drivers

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 5:00 AM

#

Yeah but if I use a hotspot to connect to WiFi

#

Like on my phone

#

If I turn on my hotspot

#

And connect my pc to it

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 5:00 AM

#

oh you could download to your phone

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 5:00 AM

#

I can go on the internet

#

Ohhh wait I get it

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 5:00 AM

#

orchid crest And connect my pc to it

in order to connect your pc to anything wireless, you need the wifi chipset drivers

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 5:00 AM

#

I can’t even connect to the internet

#

I got it

#

Ok so how can I do that

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 5:01 AM

#

twilit isle oh you could download to your phone

^

#

i think that will work

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 5:01 AM

#

#

Should I download all these later on?

#

Not lan cause I don’t use it

#

But audio and chipset and sata

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 5:01 AM

#

wlan+bt

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 5:02 AM

#

Alright bet

#

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 5:02 AM

#

wlan means wifi-lan. bt is bluetooth. most integrated wifi chipsets have bt as well

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 5:02 AM

#

These are windows 11

#

I have windows 10

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 5:03 AM

#

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 5:03 AM

#

Oh yeah

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 5:03 AM

#

#

idk which is newer, but they both got posted on the same day

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 5:03 AM

#

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 5:03 AM

#

twilit isle idk which is newer, but they both got posted on the same day

Isn’t there any newer ones?

#

Cause those are from 2022

#

Or are updates for motherboards not that frequent

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 5:04 AM

#

not on gigabyte's website

#

try those, and if it doesnt work, go to the specific chipset manufacturer's website

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 5:05 AM

#

Specific chipset manufacturer?

#

Amd?

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 5:05 AM

#

wifi chipset

orchid crest Dec 26, 2023, 5:05 AM

#

Ohhh

twilit isle Dec 26, 2023, 5:08 AM

#
